I am a nobleman, but not one of the five great nobles of the country. I specialize in green magic.

One of the most frequent topics of conversation among us was Albert, Alain and Henri's sister Alicia.

Albert, Alan and Henri were not like that at all, so we were surprised to hear about them.

And when I met her, she was completely different. Albert was also surprised, saying that she seemed to be a different person.

But the moment Alicia pulled out the sword that was in Albert's waist and cut the apple in half, my heart was numb.

Alicia practiced hard with the sword every day and spent the next ten hours in the library reading over a hundred books.

Both times I listened to the conversation between Alicia and the King, she spoke her mind in a firm and resolute manner without any fear in front of the King.

I was surprised at her immediate understanding of the King's words, but what surprised me most of all was the way she proposed her ideas.

Her proposal at the age of seven to support the independence of the country of Calvera from the Laval State was truly amazing.

This idea is certainly reasonable, but the problem is that the Laval is too big a country.

Selling a fight to the Laval nations would surely bring them down.

There were many women who liked the Duke, including his servants, but he never showed any interest in them.

Cather Liz, the common girl, was smart enough to talk to Duke on equal terms.

Everyone looked at her with admiration and Duke was amazed at how smart she was.

But Liz was different. The way Liz looked at Duke was definitely romantic.
